Description
The generic term Heavy Fuel Oil (HFO) describes fuels used to generate motion and/or fuels to generate heat that have a particularly high Viscosity and Density. In the MARPOL Marine Convention of 1973, Heavy Fuel Oil is defined either by a density of greater than 900 kg/m³ at 15°C or a kinematic viscosity of more than 180 mm²/s at 50°C. Heavy Fuel Oils have large percentages of heavy molecules such as long-chain hydrocarbons and aromatics with long-branched side chains. They are black in color.
